Firefox 3.1 is going to use a new JS as well, called TraceMonkey. They think it is generally faster than the V8 used in Chrome; see Brendan's Roadmap Updates: TraceMonkey Update for their analysis.

Also, while it is present in the current nightlies, it isn't on by default yet. There's an about:config preference to do so: set javascript.options.jit.chrome to true.
